If you’ve ever fantasized about having your own entrance music (like baseball players or wrestlers or Monetate’s Lucinda Duncalfe), Fishtown’s O3 World has built an app you’ll dig.
It uses iBeacon and a Raspberry Pi to play music as you walk into the office.
It’s the first project from the firm’s Labs team. Watch the video below.
It’s not available to the public, but maybe one day?
For now, here are our Technical.ly staff picks for walk-up bangers. (Judge us, do it.) Put yours in the comments or on social media.
In walks…
